After breakfast at The Coffee Pot we browsed the neat shops and galleries in the Sedona Tlaquepaque village. The southwestern architecture, sculptures, and small details make the area so inspiring. We bought a few gifts for friends back home then enjoyed a prickly pear margarita while waiting out a sudden thunderstorm.

Here's an assortment of photos from the first half of our trip. Even though we've been to Arizona a few times there were still some new things to see and do. Since we didn't have a ton of things planned, we spent most of the first week lounging poolside and hanging out at the resort. Now looking through all of these is giving me a bit of those post-vacation blues!

Visiting the Chapel of the Holy Cross.

Exploring the wonderful town of Prescott.

Taking in the sunshine at Slide Rock before the dark clouds rolled in.

After countless mosquito bites and two bee stings, I'm back from a weekend of camping. It was nice to unplug from technology for a few days and really enjoy everyone's company and all of the nature around us (minus the bugs). It made for a memorable last camping trip before I move up north in a few weeks. I probably need to get busy on that whole packing thing!

PS - I'll be sharing the rest of the photos from my trip to Arizona this week. Happy Monday!
